San Francisco 49ers fullback Kyle Juszczyk had nothing but good things to say about Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift’s budding romance after hanging out with the Kansas City Chiefs tight end.
Earlier this month, the two NFL stars took to the greens and fairways together for the 35th annual American Century Championship in Lake Tahoe, California. Speaking to US Weekly on the heels of the celebrity golf tournament, Juszczyk likened Kelce to his 49ers teammate Christian McCaffrey , who recently tied the knot with model Olivia Culpo last month.
“I just spent some time with Travis this past weekend,” he began. ”In both Travis and Christian, I saw how little I needed to say because they were already doing it. They’re both already so supportive of their spouses and they both have stayed so genuine.”

Though Kelce and Swift have not gotten married just yet as the label “spouse” would indicate, Juszczyk nonetheless commended the A-list couple for their down-to-earth nature.
“I think maybe that is part of the reason why they’re so beloved by their fans and why people love both of those couples,” he added. “They’ve all stayed so genuine and real. They haven’t become too good for everyone.”
Despite each possessing incredibly demanding schedules, the two world-renowned professionals have been mutually supportive of one another's undertakings. Kelce has recently frequented many of the songstress' Eras Tour concerts in Europe, while Swift cheered the tight end on at multiple Chiefs games last season - including Super Bowl LVIII against the 49ers.

Juszczyk believes that Swift and Kelce have bonded over their immense fame and international stardom, adding that the pair have likely helped one another stay humble. “I think having - whether it’s a wife or girlfriend or whatever - on that same level as you kind of keeps you grounded,” he said.
Kristin, Juszczyk’s wife, developed a relationship with Swift after gifting her a custom puffer jacket with Kelce’s jersey number and name. After the pop icon and Brittany Mahomes - the wife of Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes - wore her garments during Kansas City’s wild-card win over the Miami Dolphins in January, the 49ers wag claimed her designer business took off.
Discussing the moment on the Today Show, Kristin said: “Brittany texted me and she said, ‘Hey, can you send me a video of Taylor's jacket?’ And I was like, ‘Wait, is there a possibility the guys both wearing this?’ And she said, ‘Yeah, we're wearing it.’
“It was just such a pinch me moment. I mean, it just was incredible. She's single handedly catapulted my career.
“I've been at this for years. When I saw her walk out in that jacket, it just like, brought me to tears.”
